Having looked at:

How can I share on the NFS server /var/cache/yum.
so it will be available as a local(nfs) cache
to all fedora boxes\vm's
as root shares are discouraged.
Server will have the following hd for shares /sdc 1tb raid1
(Hope I explained it clear enough, a problem of mine)
I have been doing similar for years (fc9) but what I do is create a local repo
on the NFS server, set yum.conf to keep packages, and then upload everything I
install or upgrade to the repo. On a regular basis I run a script that checks
for new rpm files and runs createrepo as needed. The master repo has all the
updates ever, for Fedora, with subdirectories for CentOS, RHEL, and ScientificLinux.
The advantage is that I can pull a package in a VM as needed, and it will get
upload and added to the repository. I share the repository via both NFS and
http, but fedup doesn't seem to have an obvious way to get to use local
repositories. Looking into that is on my to-do list, haven't had time to do it.
This may give you some ideas about local repo, I found it easier to keep a repo
of my own rather than find a clever way to export /var/cache/yum
